Day 4 in Clearwater---Time To Go

We didn't do anything on day 4 except pack up and leave. Ironically, this is the only day that Mallory slept till 8:00. Figures doesn't it??

We had a lot of fun on this vacation. In fact, Daniel dubbed it, "the best vacation ever."

Clearwater Beach definitely deserves it's title as a family friendly destination. The water was very calm and they till and moisten the sand every morning so that it doesn't flip up on you as you walk. There was also no noticeable under toe or current. In addition, there was also a huge playground in front of the main beach entrance with 4 different large playgrounds, including a bouncy house and slide. The pier atmosphere was even family oriented. It had clowns, jugglers, artisans, and magic shows. I even saw a talking parrot, which Mallory was scared of.

Beside Gulf Blvd. there was a large concreted sidewalk on both sides so there was plenty of room for pedestrians. The only complaint I had was that the beach accessed restrooms were either or. I prefer a separate ladies room.

Mallory was really tired. Before we got on the interstate, we stopped at Cracker Barrel. We left the restaurant at 10:00 and Mallory was asleep by 10:15. She was only awake for about 2 hours before she fell back asleep.
